GenXer, well.. this Deepthroat movie and the Deepthroat that you are talking about are different. The source that Woodward and Bernstein used in the Watergate scandal was nicknamed Deepthroat (same time frame as the movie).
I actually think it's a huge deal that the source (Deepthroat) was revealed and put an end to a 30 year old mystery. Proceeds or not, Woodward and Berstein already had the book written ready to go to print in anticipation of him revealing his identity. They, politely agreed to let his book go out first. The man helped bring down one of the biggest scandals in our Country's history. His family and his children kept that secret along with him. He was living in a converted garage, so if he and his kids get some money for the story, so be it.
Right now the payoff for a pic of Brad and Angelina together is half a million dollars. This story should be worth a hundred times that, because it's actually relevant.
